Mamisita

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Mamisita is a unique dog. She has a little of the face of a wire-haired dachshund, but her legs are too long and her body shape doesn't match. Griffon, terrier, schnauzer? Who knows what else is in her family tree. Mamisita doesn't care, her world is made up of good mood and fun. The young female dog has already experienced a lot in her short life. She was given up to the animal shelter in Spain with her only puppy. While her son is now old enough to no longer need his mom and has already traveled to his own family in Germany, Mamisita is still waiting for her chance. During the floods in Andalusia, she was allowed to leave the shelter and move to a loving private foster home. There she really flourished and showed how happy she can be in a family environment. After the floods, she had to return to the shelter, but Mamisita was so unhappy there that her Spanish foster family took her back. Now she is again in safety and is eagerly waiting for her people in Germany. Mamisita is an active and athletic young female dog. She loves exercise, wants to discover the world and needs people who enjoy physically and mentally exhausting her. Because Mamisita is not only full of energy, but also extremely smart. She learns quickly, is attentive and wants to please. With the right guidance and loving consistency, she will develop into a wonderful companion. We wish Mamisita active people who are in the mood for joint adventures - long walks, maybe dog sports or exciting brain work. Equally important to her, however, is the closeness to her people, security and a safe place where she can finally arrive. Who gives this special young female dog the home she so richly deserves? Mamisita is waiting for her heart people.

Mamisita ist ein Unikat. Sie hat ein wenig das Gesicht eines Rauhaardackels, aber dafür ist sie zu langbeinig und auch die Körperform passt nicht dazu. Griffon, Terrier, Schnauzer? Wer weiß, wer so alles in ihrem Familienstammbaum vertreten ist. Mamisita ist das egal, ihre Welt besteht aus guter Laune und Spaß. Die junge Hündin hat in ihrem noch kurzen Leben bereits einiges erlebt. Gemeinsam mit ihrem einzigen Welpen wurde sie im Tierheim in Spanien abgegeben. Während ihr Sohn inzwischen groß genug ist, seine Mama nicht mehr braucht und bereits zu seiner eigenen Familie nach Deutschland reisen durfte, wartet Mamisita noch auf ihre Chance. Während des Hochwassers in Andalusien durfte sie das Tierheim verlassen und auf eine liebevolle private Pflegestelle ziehen. Dort blühte sie richtig auf und zeigte, wie glücklich sie in einem familiären Umfeld sein kann. Nach dem Hochwasser musste sie zurück ins Tierheim, doch dort war Mamisita so unglücklich, dass ihre spanische Pflegestelle sie wieder zu sich holte. Nun ist sie erneut in Sicherheit und wartet von dort aus sehnsüchtig auf ihre Menschen in Deutschland. Mamisita ist eine aktive und sportliche junge Hündin. Sie liebt Bewegung, möchte die Welt entdecken und braucht Menschen, die Freude daran haben, sie körperlich und geistig auszulasten. Denn Mamisita steckt nicht nur voller Energie, sondern ist auch ausgesprochen klug. Sie lernt schnell, ist aufmerksam und möchte gefallen. Mit der richtigen Führung und liebevoller Konsequenz wird sie sich zu einer wundervollen Begleiterin entwickeln. Für Mamisita wünschen wir uns aktive Menschen, die Lust auf gemeinsame Abenteuer haben – lange Spaziergänge, vielleicht Hundesport oder spannende Kopfarbeit. Ebenso wichtig ist ihr aber auch die Nähe zu ihren Menschen, Geborgenheit und ein sicherer Platz, an dem sie endlich ankommen darf. Wer schenkt dieser besonderen jungen Hündin das Zuhause, das sie so sehr verdient? Mamisita wartet auf ihre Herzensmenschen.

About Mamisita

What life with Mamisita looks like

Mamisita is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Melampo in Melampo.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mamisita, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mamisita?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Melampo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mamisita on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mamisita if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Melampo will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Mamisita already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Mamisita isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Melampo early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mamisita and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
